Years and years ago, we farm-type boys just couldn't wait for the first snow-fall.

It gave us the first chance for writing OUR names in the snow, with our girlfriend doi'N the writ'N.

Watch out. In January, 1964 I was traveling from my base in North Carolina to Denver and arrived in Nashville in the evening to sixteen inches of snow. The main drag, Hiway 70 as I recall, was cleared enought for two lanes. They were clearing with front loaders, no plows.

I see you live near Jackson, I drive thru there a couple of time a year on the way to Pickwick Lake. There's a bone yard on 412 that I stop at to look at all the old stuff he has.

Sending the Ole Lady after gas for the generator in case it is ice, and rips the power out.

Wrong priorities. If you lived up here in the snow, ice and cold you would learn that you never send the ole lady for anything but beer,and liquor. Nothing else matters until May

 

[ff in mich]

Here in s.michigan, we hardly have any snow left, and over all this winter has to be one of the least amout of snow we have ever gotton

LMAO!!

I pretty much go to work and home.

The Ole Lady goes most every where else, especially the beer, liquor, and cig. stores.

Even the parts stores.
